Casual games ยท Co-development

We make casual games โ€” and help others make them better

Grand Cake Games Limited has two focuses: our own casual mobile games, currently in development, and co-development and outsource services for studios worldwide. Our team has already helped dozens of studios build, buy and sell better casual games.

Two layers, one recipe

Everything we do sits on the same foundation: two decades of hands-on casual games experience, on both the creative and the business side.

Our own games

Our first casual titles are in development right now. We are building them the way we would advise any partner to: small focused team, honest playtesting, and a live operations plan from day one. Announcements are coming โ€” watch this space.

Co-development & outsource

We plug into other studios' projects as a partner, not a vendor: game design, product and ad monetization, marketing, and corporate development. Dozens of studios worldwide have already shipped, sold or acquired better casual games with our help.

Services

Take one piece or the whole cake. We work with studios of any size, from first-time teams to established publishers, anywhere in the world.

Game design

Core loop and meta design, economy balancing, progression and retention systems, live event design, and honest design reviews of what you already have in production.

Product monetization

Pricing and offer architecture, IAP and subscription strategy, LTV modelling, A/B testing frameworks, and the analytics setup needed to trust the numbers behind every decision.

Marketing & ad monetization

User acquisition strategy and scaling, creative production pipelines, ad mediation and waterfall setup, eCPM optimisation, and the balance between ads and in-app purchases.

M&A and corporate development

Buy and sell side advisory in gaming: target sourcing, valuation, product and technical due diligence, deal structuring, and post-merger integration of studios and portfolios.

LiveOps support

A launch is the beginning, not the finish line. We help set up event calendars, content pipelines, and 24/7 operational routines that keep casual titles alive for years.

Product audit

A structured review of your game's metrics, economy, UA efficiency and roadmap, ending with a prioritised list of what to fix first and what it is realistically worth.

About Us

Grand Cake Games Limited is an independent casual games company registered in England and Wales. We are a small, senior team that has spent two decades inside casual games โ€” designing them, scaling them, monetising them, and buying and selling the studios that make them.

An exceptional team

Over 20 years of combined experience in mobile games. The team was handpicked from studios behind titles played by hundreds of millions of people.

Dozens of studios helped

We have worked with partners across Europe, the Americas and Asia โ€” helping them create better casual games, or find the right buyer or the right acquisition.

Casual games only

We do one genre family and we do it properly. Simple rules, deep progression, and a warm feeling that keeps players coming back for years.

Player feedback first

Whether it is our game or yours, players decide what happens next. Every roadmap we write starts with what the data and the community actually said.

Numbers, not opinions

Design intuition is the starting point; unit economics, cohorts and tests are what we ship on. We bring the same discipline to a deal model as to a game economy.

Partners, not vendors

We take ownership of outcomes, work inside your process and tools, and stay long enough to see the results of what we recommended.
